Honda – other models: the collective page of compact and garden tractors outside the named ranges, H, HF and HT types plus the Foreman 400 ATV, 7.8 to 25 kW, diesel and petrol engines
Honda is a Japanese maker of motorcycles, cars and small engines that also builds compact and garden tractors for Japanese agriculture and for garden and grounds care. This collective page gathers the Honda models outside the named ranges: the H types as small field tractors, the HF range as garden and ride-on tractors, and the HT range for similar uses, supplemented by a single ATV model, the Foreman 400.

The register lists here 29 versions with 7.8 to 25 kW (10.5 to 33 hp); among the drives, diesel engines, typical of the H and HT types, sit alongside petrol units used in the smaller HF garden tractors.
At this power level Honda does not serve the market for large field tractors but the segment of small yard, garden and grounds-care machines, where the brand benefits from its reputation for reliable small engines from motorcycle and equipment manufacturing, competing in Japan directly with Kubota, Iseki and Yanmar for the same customers.
Buying used, on the diesel types check the condition of the injection pump and starter, on the petrol-powered HF models the carburettor and ignition system, and generally the condition of the mower deck or attachments, belt drives and hydrostatic transmission; since Honda's agricultural machines are mainly common in Japan, sourcing parts outside that market is often harder than for European or American garden tractors.
